- nsf.c: use name "varTablePtr" instead of "varTable" when referring to the table - new option "slotcontainer" for "methodproperty" to flag slotcontainer to make them easier to process in the serializer . don't report slot container in "info methods -expand" - new function "::nx::isSlotContainer" to centralize checking for slotcontainers (used by serilaizer) - support export of method ensembles in serializer
